TUE PRESS.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, MARCH 80.

The Kennebee Journal attributes to the
PRESS a remark that clearly implies that the
PRESS believes that the proper course for
Republican paper TO pursue in the treat
ment of public matters is to wait and see
what the Democratic papers have to say in
regard to them and then get on the 'side
fatherest from the Democratic papers" No
such cowardly policy as that was ever adj
yoca.ed by the PRESS The words the Jour
nal quotes never appeared in this paper.
That crafty statesman, the Hon. Carter
Harrison, has changed his mind again and
concluded not to accept the Democratic nom
ination for mayor of Chicago. The Honora-
BILE gentleman explains that the unanimity
with which the nomination was rendered so
overcame him thath he accepted it without full
ly realizing what he was doing, and now that
he has had time to deliberate he has come to
the conclusion that he must decline. Two
considerations have moved him to this
eourse-0ne an accusation of treachery made
against him by man who wanted the nomi-
nation and who probably would have got it
had Harrison stuck to his original intention
OF declining-the other that it was the wish
of the President that some other person
should be selected.
Mr.. HarriSon's withdrawal leaves the Chi
cago Democracy in very bad plight. There
is no other Democrat in the city who has
such hold on the rumsellers and gamblers
as he, and therefore there is no one who can
come SO near polling the full strength of the
party No doubt Harrison was fully alive
to this fact when he withdrew, and no doubt
1t had great weight in bringing him to his
determination to accede to the wishes OF the
President. Harrison is Jacksonian and
Cleyeland's dalliance with the Mugwumps
is exceedingly distasteful to him. Here is
an opportunity" he reasoned, ito teach the
President how unpopular his administration
is among the Democrats of Chicago l will
withdraw, and let the Presidents Mugwump
friends nominate candidate and manage
the campaign. And the defeat that will fol-
low will be rebuke to the President" So
Carter steps down and out and allows the
better element of the Democracy and the
Mugwumps to attempt to carry Chicago. The
result cannot be doubtful The better ele-
ment will be unsuccessful, and Harrison will
come forth from his temporary retirement
after election bigger boss than ever

HARMONY is an inflated and pretentious little

1t is not probable that when Mr.. Story
went to Rome in 1856, and began to write the
notes of his impressions which make up his
charming Roba di Roma, he could have ex-
pected that his sketches would be so valua-
BILE, so indispensable to the world of art and
letters as they now are, appearing in their
eighth edition. Boston: Houghton, Miflin
d Co.; Portland: Loring, Short & HARMONY
That which is before our eyes appears so
real and substantial that it is not easy to give
more than neutral assent to the axiom that
everything passes away, and when Mr. Sto-
ry caught the song that the piferGri from
the hills came to play, for the noreRG of
Christmas, before Madonna of the street-cor-
ner; when destroyed through the horrible pic
turesque alleys of the Ghetto, Or even noted
the gay colors OF peasant costumes against
the gray ruinous remains of old edifices-it is
not likely that he looked to see the time
when modern progress, sanitary reform, the
tourist, the milliner, would do their work as
surely as time fulils its Office of leveller, and
piterdri, costumes, and the strange life of
the swarming Ghetto would have become
part of Roman history of the past And now
the world owes to Mr.. Storya genuine debt
of gratitude, that he seized with the rapid
sight and brush of the trained artist upon
the salient points of Rome, as like brilliant
procession it unrolled itself before him.
Nothing less than long residence, and the
the habit of citizenship could make possible
the writing of such work as Roba di Roma.
The writer noted his impressions. and had
time to review them; he gained that right of
seeing things from the inside, which is hard
ly to be obtained by the mere tourist, and
which is the only key to thorough and cohe-
rent understanding. He has seen and relat-
ed precisely those things which an intelli-
gent listener would wish to hear about and
with the efficiency of a man accustomed to
translate his impressions into definite shape.
The time of his sojourn in Rome was for
tunate one for himself and for his reader,
who in this transition period-beneicial to
the Rome or the Romans, and involving
both loss and gain to the historic and artis-
tic Rome of whose empire we all are citizens
will rejoice that so faithful record re-
mains of its earlier condition. A charming
portion of the work is that which includes
MIR. Story's translations of some of the many
stornetH and rispetti, the songs of the people,
of which he has admirably retained the
beauty and the simplicity. To those who
love to recall, or to understand, not. having
seen, the manifold unnameable unasserted
points of interest that were and are in Rome,
MIR. Story's two volumes of Roba di Roma
may be recommended as books to be read,
re-read, and cnce and again, always afford
ing fresh variety and value.

The GLOBE would be remisS i'll politeneSS
if it did not express its appreciation of its
Third street contemporaries effort to aid i'll
celebrating the GLOBES occupancy OF Its
new ten-story building. The fact that our
contemporary made feeble effort in that
direction does not minifY the GLOBES
sense of obligation, for we have
every reason TO know that our
contemporary hit its best licks. When
several weeks ago the GLOBE
announced that it would issue neat and
attractive special edition of $4,000 copies
on the occasion of taking possession Of its
new building, it announced that the adyer-
Using space IN the special edition would be
limited. The advertisers who wished to
avail themselves of this extraordinary op-
portunity cheerfully paid extra rates for
the space they occupied. About two weeks
ago our Third street morning contemporary
took it into its head that it would be an APP
propriate piece of newspaper courtesy to
rig itself out in holiday attire on the oc-
caSion of the GLOBES celebration, and it
accordingly went to work with an energy
that it seldom displays to initiate itself for
the occasion. By dint of hard canyassing
and taking advertisements at anything it
could get for them, our contemporary sue
ceeded in padding itself up to the proper
tons of a bill board plastered over with
lot of big-lettered, cheap advertisements.
Advertisers went in on the Indians princi-
pie of paying the preacher preach,
poor pay" They probably considered that
low rates for advertising were high enough
considering the limited circulation the ad-
vertisements got. Be that is it may, our
contemporary did the best it could to adorn
itself in proper bib and tucker for our cele-
bration. If its holiday garb was little
unique and odd-fashioned. the GLOBE is
not going to laugh at the ridiculous figure it
cut. Our sense of propriety would prevent
us from doing that. Because the GLOBE is
prosperous and has thorough knowledge
of the business of journalism, it is not
going to make fun of it's fossillated neigh
bors who never knew anything of journal
istic enterprise and are now too old to
learn. The GLOBE regrets that its pros
perity should make it the object of malig-
nant envy on the part of any of its con-
temporaries. But it can't be helped. The
GLOBE has mission to fulfill. Its aim in
life is to maintain the position it has won
of being THE NEWSPAPER OF THE
NORTHWEST. And it is going to stay
there.
